Too Much Electricity.

DR.. William NJ. Garrard is on his way
home from Cheyenne, forced to return for
bis health, his indisposition having been
caused by an atmospheric phenomenon,
which is singular, to say the least. lie,
with many other residents of Cheyenne,
have teen Overcharged with electricity,
which affected their nervous systems to
such an extent as to cause Insomnia, hallu-
ciDation and depression. The super-elec.
tiilication Of the Cheyennetes was caused
by the continued blowing of strong winds
for period Of seven weeks. Tie velocity
Of the wind during this time has never been
less than tlitty miles and sometimes as
great as eighty miles an hour The ground
In consequence became extremely dry, and
the friction Of the wind in passing over 1t
produced an enormous quantity OF cleo
tlicity, and every one was more or less
charged.
The old residents are used to such things,
and are in a sense non n'conductors, or are
charged with something stronger than
lightning, but the effect was serious on the
new residents. DR.. Garrard said that when
two persons charged with differing Quanti-
ties OF the fluid would shake hands there
would always be distinct shock, and the
cats are simply crazy. They are walking
electric batteries, and give painful shocks
when touched. Many residents have gone
to California temporarily 70 get relief

Caught In her basom's snowy hem,
Some buttercups are fastened in-

Nor are they conscious that their skies

Her hair and mild blue eyes.
There, in the downy meshes pinned,
Such sweet illusions haunt their rest,
